Not if bosa never sees the field.

I mean his injuries are a reasonable concern. I can't remember a time when a guy played three games his last year in college and still got picked #2 overall. Is Bosa too small?

Nope, not too small and not an injury concern. Everybody get over yourselves already.

I don't think wishing injury on our players is to be encouraged

Sure buddy, you're not the one spending the money. The Niners are definitely asking themselves these types of questions, they're about spend millions on this guys contract. They aren't doing their job if not considering these things.

Time to start thinking of the DL line up and which would be the better combination.

FORD - BUCKNER - THOMAS - BOSA

FORD - BUCKNER - WILLIAMS - THOMAS

Doesn't matter, without Bosa we're an injury away from not having any edge rushers again.

Wow, who pissed in your Cheerios? No draft pick is 100% ideal, but there is huge upside with this guy. Even Khalil Mack who should've been taken first by the stupid Houston Texans wasn't a completely full proof slam-dunk. They picked Clowney who couldn't stay healthy for 2 years but finally was able to stay on the field long enough to see he was still a very good pick, even though not worthy of the overall #1. Drafting involves a little bit of luck too, like when Mack fell right to the Raiders who then years later stick their head up their ass and trade him away.

Boy, Howdy. We won't even have Marsh. One injury to Buck and we have Street, Thomas, AA, Blair, Taylor, Jones, and Day.

Gotta disagree with you on Clowney. His stats the last two relatively healthy years are very comparable to our Buckner. I'd be delighted to get that caliber of player out of a #1 overall. The rare times I've been able to see him he's been a force. The rarer times I've seen JJ Watt and him both healthy together they've been a True Terror.

I'm not a Texans fan, but a Clowney fan and it's JMHO. We'll see if he can stay healthy going forward.
Ford-Buck-Thomas-Bosa

Can't lie, that would be pretty awesome, the question is, how many downs does that combo play?

They're not going to be on the field every down so you ave to have strong rotational players in the mix too.
